商品の説明
内容紹介
With an intuitive understanding of melody and dynamics, Nancy Elizabeth brings a refreshingly Northern turn of phrase to her debut album, Battle and Victory. The Lancashire-born singer's down-to-earth songs are brought to life by her warm and unaffected voice. Unpretentious but effortlessly ambitious, Elizabeth turns the retro, less-is-more aesthetic of the current acoustic revival on it's head. Not content with writing and singing all the songs herself, the 23-year-old also plays most of the instruments, including guitar, khim, Indian harmonium, Appalachian dulcimer, and bouzouki, among many others. Prominently featured is a 22-string Celtic harp, which she first picked up in 2005, after an inspirational chance meeting with a harp player at a Liverpool gallery. The album was recorded in a 17th Century white stone cottage in the remote Welsh countryside, and in a village hall outside Manchester. This intimate, uncontrived gem of a record uses a minimum of recording equipment, revealing the heartfelt honesty of her songs; it extends to grander, more complex arrangements when the occasion calls for friends to add cello, horns, and percussion. While her work is never in thrall to any particular musician or genre, Elizabeth calls to mind aspects of artists as diverse as Nina Nastasia, the Incredible String Band, Radiohead, Jackie McShee, Mogwai, Talk Talk, and Led Zeppelin.
Product Description
With an intuitive understanding of melody and dynamics, Nancy Elizabeth brings a refreshingly Northern turn of phrase to her debut album, Battle and Victory.
The Lancashire-born singer's down-to-earth songs are brought to life by her warm and unaffected voice. Unpretentious but effortlessly ambitious, Nancy turns the retro, less-is-more aesthetic of the current acoustic revival on its head. Not content with writing and singing all the songs herself, the 23-year-old also plays most of the instruments, including guitar, khim, Indian harmonium, Appalachian dulcimer and bouzouki, amongst many others.
Prominently featured is a 22-string Celtic harp, which she first picked up a little over two years ago, after an inspirational chance meeting with a harp player at a Liverpool gallery. Not long afterwards she received a modest award from a music foundation, and within days had spent it all on the perfect instrument, which has become a cornerstone of her performances.
The album was recorded in a 17th Century white stone cottage in the remote Welsh countryside, and a village hall outside Manchester, resulting in an intimate, uncontrived gem of a record. Using a minimum of recording equipment, the heartfelt honesty of her songs is revealed, extending to grander, more complex arrangements when the occasion calls, and bringing in friends to add cello, horns and percussion. While her work is never in thrall to any particular artist or genre, Nancy's music calls to mind aspects of artists as diverse as Nina Nastasia, The Incredible String Band, Radiohead, Jackie McShee, Mogwai, Talk Talk and Led Zeppelin.
Immersed in music from an early age ("music has always seemed more natural than talking," she says), Nancy has been writing songs since she was 14, and has performed live for six years. In the last twelve months she has appeared at the Green Man Festival (where she will appear again this August) and played alongside A Hawk And A Hacksaw, Tunng and James Yorkston among others. She is currently putting together a small touring group to augment her already much-loved acoustic 'one-girl-band' shows which feature primarily acoustic guitar and her beloved harp.

Cantante dalla voce diafana, dolcissima, polistrumentista con una particolare propensione all'arpa, raffinata compositrice che pesca dal passato senza rinunciare alla modernità. La cura degli arrangiamenti di questi tredici brani tradisce una maturità che non diresti di una ventiquattrenne al suo esordio sulla lunga distanza (ha esordito nel 2006 con un ep).
"Battle and victory" è un album denso e intenso, ricco di mille aromi e mille sfumature, un lavoro assolutamente da rivalutare e non solo se si è appassionati di folk contemporaneo, semplicemente se si ama la musica.
